Hello.  I'm trying to find some documentation on some ARCNET cards
I've come across to see if I can use them.  The cards are 16-bit,
and appear to handle twisted pair or BNC connectors.  They are made in
Taiwan and have "AN-500S" printed on them, which appears to be the
model number.  They also have the letters "OK" printed on a sticker
attached to the BNC connector, but I don't know if that is supposed to
be a brand name or some kind of quality control check.  The card uses
an SMC chipset.

I've searched the Web unsuccessfully for information, so I thought I'd
try here next (the Linux documentation has a section on arcnet cards,
but these weren't listed).
